What I think scholars need?

This will not be a post saying how bad scholars are, it's more about what I feel should be done to tie the knot. For me it's only 4 changes mostly, with some examples.

First will be physic. We are the only healers that doesn't have a little something extra. This is what I propose:

Either have a % chance when casting physic to get "fairy empowerment" increasing the pet's potency by 10% or

Casting x physics increases the next galvanize ability by 100.

Next will be aldo + succor I think having a healer based abilities based on RNG is bad, but I digress.

What I propose is a change to how galvanize works. If a target is 80% or higher instead of a heal the shielding will double.(instead of a 300 aldo it will be 600)

If the target is above 30% it will function as normal with a small potency boost on the healing portion of it.

If the target is below 30% it will be a full heal with a high chance to crit or guaranteed crit.

Or

lower the cost by 400 each.

Dissipation, can just give u 3 aetherflow stacks 60sec CD.

last but not least fairy union. I know it's simple and you might not like it, but hear me out. What if you pet becomes bonded to you only and it just shares your full healing potency for the duration.

As many of y'all know our pets don't have 100% of our stats I believe it's about 70% if I'm not mistaken. That extra 30% could be huge, tac on "fairy blessing" increasing your potency by 10% and problem solved.

Honestly I would like any feedback, just don't be a jerk about it if you disagree.

The Dissipation change is weird since we already get a full stack of Aetherflow every minute by using the regular ability, sooner if the Quickened trait is taken into account. If it was more like MCH Quick Reload - granting a single stack of Aetherflow every so often (like every 90s), then I'd be more inclined to like Dissipation. However, I believe this would be better as a free fairy switch, assuming Selene can be brought more in line with Eos.

I think a better Physick proc, if it really needs one, is to have a 30% chance that the next Physick has its potency increased to 600 or be a guaranteed crit (among its base heal being boosted to 450 potency). The Fairy empowerment idea isn't terrible, however, using a spell that SCH doesn't want to use to power up our main source of healing is the same problem WHM is having with the Lily system. Most SCHs would not be happy with the change.

Having a dynamic Galvanize, especially with a guaranteed crit-shield if a target is above a certain threshold, just feels bad for balancing. The only reason I can imagine the spells are so expensive right now is because Deployment exists in its current capacity. People in HW would spam Adlo fishing for a crit on a WAR, then deploy the extra strong crit heal to allow players to ignore mechanics.

The point of Fey's Union is to fix the Fairy AI to focus heals on a single character, but the problem lies is that it's tied to a resource that needs cooldowns to build up instead of being a cooldown in itself, meaning Fey's Union is hard to get going until later in the battle (not to mention it locks out the fairy cooldowns and movement and the bar drains very fast).
